The Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, announced that the controversial singer Portable will face more than six charges in court. He disclosed this information in a Twitter thread on Saturday, clarifying the distinction between the alleged threat by Musiliu Akinsanya—better known as MC Oluomo—and Portable’s case.

Responding to a Twitter user who compared the two situations, Adejobi wrote, “I am sure you are very awake as I have addressed MC’s case, but Portable has more than six count charges to attend to, apart from resisting arrest and injuring a policeman.” He added that Portable will also be charged for beating a man in Otta who filed a petition with the Commissioner of Police in Ogun. “There are many pending cases of assaults on people and attacks, and he will be investigated because people have complained against him,” Adejobi said.

Adejobi emphasized that the law applies equally to everyone: “So, there is no sentiment in law. Let him appear in court and allow the judge to hear the charges against him. He has no constitutional immunity anyway. Ire o.” Portable was taken into police custody on Friday after resisting arrest the previous day when officers stormed his office.
